like, totally!

So, do I like, totally use the words, like and totally, like totally all the time?

Aria says to me the other day, "mom, I like, totally totally, drew a letter u, like totally."

I am the only one that is with her 24/7, do I seriously talk like that?

I don't think I use those words that much but could I be like, totally in denial?

HIGH SCHOOL MUSICAL 3!

Confession:

I am a 26 year old mother of 2 and I am so glad that they are girls, only because I have the excuse to take them to High School Musical 3. I seriously LOVE all the HSM movies. I have since the first time I saw Troy and Gabriella sing and they didn't even know each other. A few years later and they are graduating and moving on with their lives. Can I do the same?

This is definitely my favorite of the 3. It didn't hurt that Troy was smokin' HOT, and has some wicked dance moves. I love it all.

If you want to see a cheesy movie, let me know I will probably love it!

DTR?

2003...
I will never forget the day that Geoff asked me to be his girlfriend. I didn't think that I should assume that he wanted to date only me so I waited for the "DTR" (define the relationship). We were sitting on the couch and he asked me how I was doing, then proceeded to say how much he liked me and only wanted to date me. I was so excited and I couldn't wait to tell my mom and sisters.

5 years later... (names have been changed to protect the innocent)
I was talking to my friend "May" and she was telling me about the guy she is dating. I asked if she had "DTR"ed and they hadn't but she wasn't concerned. A few days later I was checking her facebook and noticed that in the relationship part it said "Tyler's" name. I got really excited and called her to find out that there was no DTR. "How can that be", you ask? Well one day "May" checked her facebook and the system told her that "Tyler" was requesting her to be in a relationship. So she said yes.

That my friends is how you DTR, 2008 style.

Digital Scrapbooking

Do any of you digital Scrapbook?

I HATE to scrapbook, I think it is a huge mess. But I think I could get into digital scrapbooking it seems easy and fun. Is this true?

Now I need some recommendations. What is the best software? Can you get free paper downloads? Does it manage your pictures? Is there anything else that I need to know? I have no idea what I am doing!

Please help me know what direction I should proceed. THANKS!!

I'm Behind

I have to apologize, I have recently realized that I am NOT a multi-tasker. When I am focused on something I have no room for thinking or doing other things. Hence when I am out of town doing lots of things I don't ever look at the computer, so when I get home I feel overwhelmed at all the things I want to remember and post. So in an effort not to get behind and not to feel overwhelmed here is our last few weeks in a recap.

The whole reason we were in Utah was because Geoff's Grandma Evelyn passed away. She is the most wonderful woman. I feel so lucky to have known her and we feel her with us all the time.

If you want to read the sweetest post on how Grandma Evie passed away read

We love you!

Family Photo

Thanks to the funeral the entire Hill family was together. It has been about 3 years since we have had a group picture. This family is getting large fast so it was IMPOSSIBLE that everyone was looking and smiling at the same time.

I love this picture of Tracy, Joeen and their kids
Our attempt at a family picture, thanks Laila.
Geoff and I haven't had a picture together in a long time. It felt like we were having our engagement pictures all over again.

Pumpkin Patch

There is the cutest pumpkin patch right up the street from our store, when I saw it I couldn't resist. What says fall better then a pumpkin patch?

Birthday Parties

Aria is so lucky that she happened to be by all her Grandparents and Aunties and Uncles on her birthday, that means lots of parties. She is also so lucky because she shares her birthday with her cousins Brady and Easton.

Aria was able to celebrate with her dad the day before her birthday because he had to leave the next day.


On Aria's birthday we were with Grandma and Papa Steed to have ANOTHER party!
We celebrated with a fresh peach cobbler, delicious!

Happy Birthday to ARIA!

Today my sweetheart is 3 years-old. It seems like only yesterday she was born. I remember it so well and it was definitely one of the BEST days of my life. This little lady is one of the funniest, cutest, most frustrating, sweetest, smartest kids in the world. I am so happy that she is mine. I love you Aria.
I will post all about her birth later because that is something I want to remember.
